Down In The City Lyrics by The Generators

Tyranny

0

It roars like a lion
The sound of the streets
Rats in the alleyway
LAPD on the beat
Life in the sewers
Living hell
Go ask the junkie
Going blue
At the Alexandria hotel
Down down down
In the city!
Down down down
In the city!
The prostitute she strolls
On Broadway
In the eyes of the killer
She the oncoming prey
Knock on her door
Welcome the virus
It's HIV, herpes
And hepatitis
Forgotten faces
And forgotten names
Another poor bastard
Pleading for change
The crack pipes light up
Like a candle vigilance
The angels cry
Down on the streets
Of Los Angeles
